Equity Method Investment

The ADGM Entity

On January 27, 2023, the Company and Zero Two (formerly known as FS Innovation, LLC) entered into a Shareholders’ Agreement to form an Abu Dhabi Global Markets company (the “ADGM Entity”) in which the Company has a 20% ownership interest, which is accounted for as an equity method investment. The ADGM Entity commenced mining operations in September 2023.

During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company received a non-monetary dividend in the amount of $8.5 million associated with approximately 1,950 mining rigs distributed by Zero Two. The Company recorded the mining rigs to property and equipment at fair value and recognized a loss of $4.1 million that reduced the Company’s investment in the ADGM Entity for the year ended December 31, 2024.

The Company’s share of net losses was $1.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, including approximately $12.4 million of depreciation and amortization and $0.6 million for year ended December 31, 2023, including approximately $2.1 million of depreciation and amortization.
